Chapter 29 I like it here
As more orcs gathered outside the Copper Gate Fortress to try to hunt Arthur, he began a peaceful day in the Dwarf Kingdom.
Three meals a day are provided by the dwarf Xiaoji, and Arthur, Jean and Arnold spend their daily practice. Spence has obtained a rare time to recover from injury.
The dwarf Toren came to see him once after Arthur and the others moved in, and then it seemed to disappear and never came again for a long time.
Arthur didn't care, because the other party didn't owe him anything.
It was half a month after Torun appeared again. He felt embarrassed to see Arthur, "Brother Arthur, I have been refining ore almost day and night during this period, so I didn't come to see you."
"It's okay, it's already very good to have Xiaoji take care of him here. I know you're preparing for your growth gift."
"You already know, it's great. I'm here today to invite you to my coming-of-age ceremony tomorrow."
"Okay." Arthur agreed very happily. After holding it in for half a month, he also wanted to take the opportunity to take a look.
The next morning, Xiaoji came over to take Arthur and the others to watch the ceremony.
The dwarf's adult ceremony is on the lowest level platform near the lava lake, with a vertical passage similar to an elevator leading directly to the lowest level.
When Arthur and his friends arrived, nearly a thousand dwarves had gathered on the wide platform. Nearly a hundred dwarves were adults in the Earth Sound Castle every year, and the relatives and friends of these dwarves were invited to watch the ceremony.
The edge of this platform has extended to the top of the lava lake. When you stand on it, you can feel the heat coming from your feet. When you lower your head, you can see huge lava bubbles bursting one after another in the lava lake.
A huge stove is built every ten meters on the edge of the platform, with thirty-six ones in a circle. At this time, the furnace entrance is still closed.
The adulthood ceremony was actually hosted by the dwarf king Ulantuk himself.
After a hammer dance performed by one hundred male dwarves, Ulantuk went on stage to explain the historical legend of the dwarves. Arthur, who heard it for the first time, heard it with relish. The general idea was that the dwarves were faithful warriors of God, and they were passed down from generation to generation to protect and build weapons.
After a long story, all the dwarves present began to sing the dwarf war song under the leadership of the Dwarf King. Their singing was desolate and sad, and many dwarves even cried on the spot.
"What a simple and cute race. I think dwarves live happier than us humans and beasts!" Arthur whispered a heartfelt emotion.
"A simpler, more straighter personality will make you happier, at least you won't be as tired as our human race." Joan also agreed with Arthur's point of view.
After the war song, the Dwarf King officially announced the beginning of the adulthood ceremony.
As the Dwarf King finished speaking, the sound of creaking chains sounded on the platform. When Arthur and the others were looking for the source of the sound, the furnace mouths of the stoves were opened and the red flames were led up from the ground.
The dwarf used some method to introduce the magma fire in the lava lake into the stove. These flames were hotter and purer than the ordinary flames on the ground, and there were fewer impurities forged weapons and equipment.
As the stove opened, thirty-six dwarves, including Torun, stepped forward and each selected a stove to start forging equipment.
The raw materials for forging equipment have been refined before this. At this time, all the materials need to be fused and forged into shape to finally complete the forging.
The fire on the platform was red for a moment, and the jingling sounds were heard, making the scene very spectacular.
At this time, Arthur and his friends were unexpectedly distracted. Joan was excited and grabbed Arthur's arm tightly, "Do you feel it? When the lava fire was attracted, the fire-type magic elements on the platform almost doubled."
Of course, Arthur felt the abnormality of the magic element and knew why Joan was so excited, because practicing here could almost double the speed of magic practice.
In fact, as long as the fire-type magic elements are nearby, the fire-type magician will increase, but the fire-type magician cannot use it to practice because the body cannot withstand the scorching of flames. When the dwarf leads the magma flame to the platform furnace, the fire-type magic elements are added while avoiding damage to the magician's body.
"I can find a way to talk to the Dwarf King. I can agree to any conditions. If he agrees to practice in me, I can break through to level 6 in less than half a year." Qiong looked excited. Now Qiong had never had a desire for power.
"It's strange. Not only the fire-type magic elements, but also the dark magic elements have also increased, but they are not as obvious as the fire-type." Arnold also expressed his doubts.
Arthur's eyes also shined, "I'm starting to really like this place, and I'll go find the Dwarf King later."
......
On the Necrop Plateau, four young men wrapped in cloaks were moving slowly against the strong wind.
The strong wind lifted up a corner of the cloak of the man walking in the front, revealing a touch of red short hair, which was Geli.
Gri and the others finally brought the Ten Princess, a girl who was as eager to escape from the imperial family as Joan.
The Ten Princess grew up in the Imperial Palace and still had some channels in the Dragon Scale Guard. Soon, the news that Arthur and the others appeared in the Undead Highlands for the last time, and the four of them followed Arthur and the others' footsteps.
"Wait a minute." Becky suddenly stopped.
"Come out." Gri pulled out the Flying Star Silver Spear behind her.
Seven or eight men in different dresses climbed up from the pile of gravels in front, and surrounded Geli and the others with a grim smile.
"The third group is here, there are too many people who are dying in this place." Huey licked his chapped lips and flew directly on it.
Gori and Becky followed Huey and started fighting without saying anything, a fight unfolded instantly.
After arriving at the Necrotic Heights, these young people realized the cruelty of this land and could lead to killing for any reason.
Since Grimm and the others stepped onto the high ground, the reason was that there were three young girls in their small team, which attracted many hungry wolves who came to smell.
On this plateau where there are only bandits and murderers and cult heresy, young girls are as rare and precious as windless weather, and these young people look as weak as lambs to be slaughtered.
When a group of hungry wolves came to the door on their own initiative, they were shocked to find that they were the lamb to be slaughtered.
Facing his opponent, Huey, who was twice as good as his, instantly entered a state of madness. He jumped to the enemy with a leap. When the opponent's knife was only half swung out, a pair of sharp claws had already penetrated into the opponent's chest.
Geli shook open a piece of gun flowers, and one person attacked three people at the same time.
A man easily used his long sword to hold the Yuehuan that Becky was slashing down, but he didn't expect a python would jump out of the Yuehuan and be bitten by Xiaoqing's throat.
The Ten Princess pulled a big bow behind the three of them, and the tip of the arrow kept moving with the target, but she didn't even have the chance to shoot an arrow, and the battle ended.
The blood in Huey's eyes gradually faded away. As the blood dripped from the flying claws, he whispered: "I like this place."
"I think it likes it here too." Becky looked at Xiaoqing, who was feasting on a corpse.
"Ah!" Princess Ten suddenly screamed, threw away the big bow in her hand and ran to Huey's side, and nervously raised Huey's arm, "Let me see, why are you so careless, you seem to be injured again."
